It's not so much that they're tight in the neck (if they're like the one from this spring/summer) as that the trim has very little give. I had to return the one I got this summer because I couldn't get my head through the neck opening.

^Good thing I didn't get one, I have a comically large head. I have a 42" chest, I have some fw10 knits in L that are almost too big and a SS 13 knit that fit a bit tight (from the sample sale), I'm hesitating about getting an XL, anyone have the p2p on one?

I'm a 35" chest and wear XS
from what I remember of my XS shirts - the collar is on the tighter side (i think less than 14.5"), chest is around 19 or 20". It's a boxier fit.
I'm still an addict for all of Ervell's alpaca sweaters (I have 5 now). Great fabric and very reasonably priced.

how did you size the sweaters (icelandic and alpaca) this year? S or XS?

Small in the icelandic. Should be a small in the pocket but got a medium and its a bit slouchy / oversized which I like

S/S 2012 Sweatshirt rib on the neck did not give much. We had the same issue with certain customers. This season they adjusted it so it still has the mock neck look but the rib has more give so you can put it on.
